Although he only suggested that he taped the conversation between himself and Comey.
Strongly suggested, some might say.
Or was it just a comment to manipulate and confuse the testimony of James Comey?

Not unlike Barack Obama, he (Comey) thinks many moves in advance, and his skills at "reading" the bad guys are second to none.

Besides, who even uses "tapes" anyway?
Maybe 50 yrs ago when DT was a young fool.
Did they say tapes or recordings?

(2,404 posts)His lawyer said so and you can believe it, believe me.
If there are or were tapes, or whatever lying orange weasels utilize to record someone these days, they'll never surface.
